WOMP WOMP: Gavin Newsom's Plan to 'End Trump's Presidency' via Gerrymandering Falls FLAT With Voters

Over the last couple of days, California Governor Gavin Newsom has been issuing weird, all-caps 'warnings' to President Trump on social media.

Yesterday, Newsom announced he was going to redistrict CA to eliminate Republican seats and 'end the Trump presidency.'

California Governor Gavin Newsom said California will move forward with drawing new congressional maps that he said "WILL END THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY" and allow Democrats to take control of the U.S. House of Representatives. https://t.co/UC41N43g9a pic.twitter.com/fpz6fVOoYH

Sure, Jan.

There are several reasons why this threat is likely empty, including the fact that the timeline to redistrict before March just isn't feasible, because it involves -- among other things -- dissolving California's independent redistricting panel.

But guess what, the majority of California voters oppose doing that:

A new POLITICO poll shows California voters prefer keeping an independent line-drawing panel to determine the state’s House seats “by nearly a two-to-one margin” (64%) while only “36% of respondents back returning congressional redistricting authority to state lawmakers pic.twitter.com/O8QOzzcHib

Here's more from POLITICO:

California Gov. Gavin Newsom faces a major hurdle in his quest to revamp his state’s congressional lines, according to a new poll: Californians’ deep support for its current independent redistricting commission.
By nearly a two-to-one margin, voters prefer keeping an independent line-drawing panel to determine the state’s House seats, the latest POLITICO-Citrin Center-Possibility Lab survey found. Just 36 percent of respondents back returning congressional redistricting authority to state lawmakers.
'It’s not surprising, in the sense that California has voted twice for this independent review commission not all that long ago,' said Jack Citrin, a veteran political science professor at UC Berkeley and partner on the poll. 'And there’s a lot of mistrust and cynicism about politicians and the Legislature. That’s reflected here as well.'
California Democrats are plowing ahead with a high-stakes gambit to redraw the state’s lines to counter a proposed gerrymander by Texas Republicans spurred by President Donald Trump. California officials are expected to unveil newly redrawn maps at the end of this week that would position Democrats to nab five extra seats, neutralizing the Texas redraw.

Absolutely devastating poll for Newsom.

Rs only make up 21% of the electorate here and CA voters STILL would not overturn the independent commission.

Good luck with wasting money on a special election! A big gamble to do if it is even legal… https://t.co/vfssaBEzhm

That means this is mostly Democracts opposing Newsom.

Wow. Arnie is going to have the wind at his back as he launches an effort to stop Gavin Newsom from ignoring the law and redrawing the map on his own. https://t.co/s3j0HTtXux

Yup. Former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has vowed to fight Newsom on this.
